Hurricane Dolly is causing havoc along the Texas coast with sustained winds of 100 mph. Fields are flooded and tornadoes are occuring. My friend in Galveston says so far they have only regular rain, but will keep me updated. She has to go into Houston today. That is scary on sunny dry days.
Just talked with my daughter and she is fine in Kemah...near Galveston. I was concerned about the storm surge.
The eye will cross the Texas Mexico border in the next little bit and the winds will shift to the other direction.

News of these big storms always leaves me tense. It;s worse when someone I care about lives in their path. I hope you and yours stay safe -- and everyone else, as well!
